This really says it all re: Sam Darnold

[frankw]

I'm glad Sam is off to improvement but that three points in the half sticks out like a sore thumb. Just hoping they improve on that significantly bc less than 20 isn't going to win too many games in this passing league.

We were two missed throws in the endzone from scoring 30+. 

Brady had a good gameplan.   Sam just needed to execute better.

Even I can see that.

Good game plan?  Really?  How many drives did we sustain in the second half?  Oh, right, ONE.

I get that we missed a couple opportunities in the first half.  What about that second half?  We had how many drives?  Five?  Six?  And three points to show.

What has Brady done, exactly?  Yes, Joe Burrow looked great . . . for one season.  He played a big role in getting TB5 in here.  Our offense ranked 24th in scoring.  This year so far?  19 points.

Brady has a long way to go in order prove he is "the next thing".

I wonder if that percentage has anything to do with the amount of screens and short dump offs we threw? Seriously, just a thought.

It probably does, but these geeks care more about stats than what the final score is.  I just watch the game without trying to figure out why so and so's "numbers" are not what I predicted.  Because all I care about is whether we win or not.

Sorry, had to rant for a minute.  Carry on.

yet those same geeks bash last year's 4 1k total scrimmmage yards players and say it doesnt matter because we didnt win.... choose a side and stay on it.

This is FAKE NEWS. GEQBUS is the GREATEST quarterback of all time.

Mike Davis DJ Moore Robby Anderson and Curtis Samuel combined for 509 touches last year. If you want Moore Anderson and Terrace or Chuba to get near that kind of yardage that's going to be tough with our best offensive threat in the mix as well. But Joe has to find a way and scheme around this oline they rolled the dice on.

I don't know, it would make sense. But I feel like that should have been taken into consideration. No clue.

Just saw this. 

 

Games of Sam Darnold with a Passer Rating over 100:

 

Sunday: 1

Previous 17 Starts: 0

 

Turns out, the Jets really are where good players go to die. 

I saw it 1 playing against Jets

previous 17 playing with Jets. 
 

Hope we see more of those but not ready to go there yet.

Hells yeah! We currently have the best record in the NFL, everything else is a moot point.

Joe Brady is going to have his pick of jobs at this rate

not if he can't score in the redzone.

What I saw in the 2nd half was the Jets "D" play better and give Sam problems causing him to either get sacked (that one time), hit (10 times total), and hurried(which led to incomplete passes). 

I'm not defending Brady nor supporting him.    Just saying that it's more about execution rather than the gameplan.

The PRWR metric one of the most simple and easy to understand. It is "Can you hold your block for 2.5 seconds?"

Yes, probably....but thats a big staple of our offense, so it is what it is.  The short pass/screen game has become a staple of many NFL offenses these days actually.  Simply because it is very difficult to defend if you've got the right guys.  And we definitely do have the right guys.  If I was Brady I would be screening teams to death until they showed they could stop it.

Doesnt really compute to me though if Sam is getting the ball out quicker than 2.5 seconds on most passing plays.
